ok - I started looking into what I need for the 48 super A 4H project, in the way of wiring.
First thing I'm hit with is a contradiction in info on serial numbers and whether or not it's supposed to be a cutout relay or a voltage regulator.
The place I'm looking at for parts is telling me it should be a cutout relay based on the tractor's serial number.
It HAD a voltage regulator on it to begin with - though when I got it - the electrical system was total junk and the regulator was obviously a newer add on.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
